I just love it when I hear good music. This is good music. I love this disc. Best described as pop punk, these guys have nice melodic vocals, fun lyrics, and fairly tight musicianship. Even though this is a crowded genre (since everyone wants to follow MxPx's footsteps), these guys still find a way to stick their head above the crowd and wag their tongue (just like the dog on this disc cover). There is one song that's a dead-ringer for an MxPx outtake - "Multiple Kittens," with its 50's sockhop rhythms. These fun-loving guys throw a funny bone and a tip of their hat to the guys in Magnified Plaid with their title track, which starts off with the like, "Darlin' take me by the hand / gonna see the noggin band." It goes on to feature a simple chorus of "Wo wo wo," jumping in and out of it with jokes like, "Don't give out the number to Mike's phone" and "We love God and we don't cuss." They follow this up with "Noggin Toboggan 2," which states, "If you went to our show and wish you didn't go, we don't feel bad..." The band finds a way to be serious, of course, but they can even take a blast at Jehovah's Witnesses in a fun way in the song "Kingdom Hall Crashers," where they say, "...we're not trying to be jerks, but God saves by grace not by works." Like any pop punk band, it's a major challenge to lay down 22 songs in a row that will keep your attention high, but these guys at least keep a consistent feel. Not every song's a hit, but I couldn't spot a real flat anywhere (I won't count the banal hidden track). Noggintoboggan is worth the fun-filled 22-song ride.
